Kenneth Knowles Seventeen Foolish Studies for Trombone are unique in the Trombone literature. They are light-hearted, funny, clever, entertaining, well composed and very useful from a pedagogical perspective. Some are based on well-known orchestral works with major Trombone solos, some are based on warm-ups, etc. There is plenty of humour to go around, even for the most serious-minded performer. The Studies are geared towards the advanced level performer.
Enjoy!
